During a laboratory experiment, you discover that an enzyme-catalyzed reaction has a ∆G of -20 kcal/mol. If you double the amount of enzyme in the reaction, what will be the ∆G for the new reaction?

Answer:

dG will be the same -20 kcal/mol

Step-by-step explanation:

The dG can be expressed in terms of the G(products) - G(reactants). If the amount of enzyme is doubled the Gibbs energy of the reactants and products will be the same, so the substraction dG has the same value
